## Caption

"After a long drive I reached the oil #fire in Qayyarah and I gave myself only a very limited amount of time to take pictures because of concerns about security. I took a few frames then this boy cycled past, stopped, and looked at me curiously. He hung around for a while then cycled away. Like other children in the area, his face was dirty with soot from the fire." - carl_court
